Give these kids credit for having the right instincts. Once you understand that you can't trust black professors to be fair to white kids, and you can't trust Latino professors to treat anyone outside of "LA RAZA" fairly, and you can't trust anyone employed by a college to treat the Republican Minority fairly, it's a short logical leap to understanding that gay professors are able to impart bias unto their students simply by being gay. Gayness: particle, or wave? Ask your science teacher—your unbiased science teacher.
